Woman's lab created opal ring handcrafted in sterling silver by Mark Hileman. If you are looking for a ring that will stand out from the crowd, this is it. This amazing opal ring is inlaid with 5 pieces of laboratory grown opal that are so vibrant you would swear it needs batteries to light up that bright. The lab opal has a purple base color with bright flashes of orange and red. You will even see hints of green at the right angles. The ring is a comfortable 7.5mm wide and is shown in a size 6 3/4 for scale. It will be made to order in your ring size in 4 to 6 weeks. Sizes larger than size 8 will be an additional charge. Select your ring size from the drop down size menu. This ring is available in a variety of opal colors and combinations if this color is not for you.

The laboratory created opal in this ring has essentially the same optical, physical and chemical properties as natural opal. The primary difference is natural opal contains water and laboratory grown opal has no water content. The water is replaced with resin which actually makes the synthetic opal stronger and less prone to cracking and breakage than natural opal. Lab created opal is a great option to get the fire and colors of top Australian opal at an affordable price.

Most of our ring styles are also available in 14k white or yellow gold as well as stainless steel for an additional charge.
